    Can someone recommend a program or tool to author a web page? I'm moving mine and need to update it. I was using FrontPage SP3 for this in Vista.

    thanks!

    Bluefish also make a tasty snack! Another very good one is Quanta. It is more involved than Bluefish, and I found it harder to use. We all like what we're used to, but Bluefish has worked well for basic HTML stuff. Quanta has a lot of advanced web authoring tools, but I don't really work with that.

    It took me a while to figure out, but a basic
    is easily done with Ctl-Alt-K

    Looks like Kompozer is really what I was looking for as I'm not really interested in writing html code ;) thanks for the replies.
